The court previously held a hearing on the plaintiffs' motion for preliminary approval on November 4, After considering the motion, the supporting memorandum and declarations, the terms of the settlement agreement filed on September 30, 2013 (the Settlement Agreement ), the court granted preliminary approval by Order dated November 6, 2013 (Dkt 83). The court held a hearing on plaintiffs motion for final approval on January 13, Having reviewed the prior Order and the supporting memorandum and declarations for final approval, it is hereby as follows: ORDERED 1

3 Case 3:12-cv GEC Document 88-4 Filed 01/07/14 Page 3 of 10 Pageid#: Based on this court's prior order, the class definition of the Settlement Class remains as: All current and former Charlottesville public housing residents since June 7, 2007 who were subject to CRHA s 2003 resolution regarding utility allowances. 2. The court finds that the terms of the Settlement Agreement are (a) fair, reasonable, and adequate in light of the relevant factual, legal, practical, and procedural considerations of the action; (b) free of collusion to the detriment of the members of the Settlement Class; (c) are approved. 3. The terms are fair, reasonable, and adequate because they were the result of arms- length negotiation between the parties conducted over a series of mediations with a Magistrate Judge of this court, return approximately one-third of the dollars charged to class members in alleged violation of law, provide for prospective relief, provide for incentive awards to the class representatives consistent with their participation, and provide for attorneys fees and costs as allowed by law. Furthermore, no class member opted out of the settlement and only one objection was filed, which raised circumstances unique to that individual not pertinent to the class. 4. Plaintiffs Janyce Lewis, Deborah Cooper, Clarissa Folley, Harold Folley, Earletta Gladden, and Telambria Tinsley remain as Class Representatives for the Settlement Class. 5. The following law firm and attorneys remain as Class Counsel for the Settlement Class: 2

4 Case 3:12-cv GEC Document 88-4 Filed 01/07/14 Page 4 of 10 Pageid#: 1148 Brenda Castañeda, VSB #72809 Thomas D. Domonoske VSB #35434 LEGAL AID JUSTICE CENTER 1000 Preston Avenue, Suite A Charlottesville, Va PHONE x 849 FAX If, for any reason, the Settlement does not become effective, this approval order shall be null and void, and it shall not be used or referred to for any purpose in this action or any other action or proceeding. Prospective Relief for Tenants 7. If no appeal is filed from entry of this order, the terms of this prospective relief shall take effect. 8. The CRHA electricity allowances will be based on the rw recommendations, based upon the 2010 HUD calculator, in Attachment 1 in the Preliminary Approval Order (Dkt 83.) 9. These allowances will continue for a period of five years. 10. The rate applied to excess electric charges shall be $.074 per kilowatt hour exceeding the allowance. This rate will continue in effect for a period of five years. 11. The tenants of each of the 251 units actually charged for utilities shall receive a credit of $15.00 per month, to be applied for thirty-six (36) months from the date of settlement. Such credits shall be applied at the tenant s discretion. 3

5 Case 3:12-cv GEC Document 88-4 Filed 01/07/14 Page 5 of 10 Pageid#: The tenants of each of the 251 units actually charged for utilities shall receive a credit of $5.00 per month for twenty-four (24) months thereafter. Such credits shall be applied at the tenant s discretion. 13. This credit shall be on the account of the household assigned to each of the 251 units actually charged for utilities, to be used for any purpose associated with the lease. 14. The CRHA shall promulgate an individual relief policy prohibiting CRHA from charging tenants who are elderly, disabled, ill, or otherwise have special needs for usage of electricity beyond their control. Thirty days prior to implementing the policy, CRHA shall provide a draft policy to Plaintiffs for comments or suggestions. The CRHA will consider and decide any requests for relief under this policy within ten days of the request. 15. The CRHA shall further notify tenants of the right to request relief from the imposition of utility surcharges upon implementation of the policy, upon their admission into the public housing program, at their initial lease execution, and at their annual recertification appointments. This notification shall be in writing and will state the right to challenge the denial of any request for relief in accordance with the CRHA s grievance procedure. 16. This prospective relief is fair, reasonable, and adequate because it implements the requirements of federal law and the intent of promoting energy-efficient practices. Retroactive Relief for Former and Current Tenants 17. The Settlement Agreement required defendants to deposit on July 2, 2013, $160, into Legal Aid Justice Center s Client Trust Account at BB&T. These funds and the interest that accrues on them are to be distributed as described below. a. $94, to be distributed to tenants who paid excess electricity consumption surcharges incurred between June 7, 2007 and May 31, 2013; 4

6 Case 3:12-cv GEC Document 88-4 Filed 01/07/14 Page 6 of 10 Pageid#: 1150 b. $6, to be distributed to tenants who did not incur excess electric charges for one or more years between January 1, 2008 and December 31, 2012, and were eligible to receive the $50.00 savings bond; c. $6, for incentive awards of $1, to each of the class representatives for pursuing the claims, to cover the expenses incurred for attending meetings and hearings as well as personal time spent advancing the litigation, and the personal risk they took in speaking out for their rights; d. $50, for attorney s fees; and e. $2, for the costs and administration of the settlement. 18. The CRHA has identified 427 current and former CRHA tenants who paid excess electric utility consumption charges incurred between June 7, 2007 and May 31, The total amount of excess utility consumption surcharges eligible for reimbursement is $288, See (Preliminary Approval Order, Attachment 2, Dkt 83.) 20. Current and former CRHA tenants eligible for reimbursement payments are identified by numbers in Attachment 2 along with the amounts they are entitled to receive. 21. The current and former tenants for whom Class Counsel has valid addresses will receive an amount equivalent to at least percent of the excess utility consumption fees charged to them between June 7, 2007 and May 31, 2013 and paid by them. 22. The settlement regarding the excess fee charge is fair to all class members who were charged these fees because they each receive the same proportionate share. It is reasonable and adequate because they receive approximately one-third of the charges that were allegedly improperly charged, and it avoids the risk that a determination on the merits could result in actual damages of far less than the amount charged. 5

7 Case 3:12-cv GEC Document 88-4 Filed 01/07/14 Page 7 of 10 Pageid#: Current and former tenants for whom Class Counsel has valid addresses and who stayed below their total annual electric utility allowance between January 1, 2008 and December 31, 2012 and thus were eligible for a $50 savings bond pursuant to the 2003 CRHA Board Resolution will receive $50.00 for each year they were eligible. The households eligible for the $50 bonds are identified by number in Attachment 3 to the Preliminary Approval Order (Dkt 83.) 24. The settlement regarding the $50 savings bond is fair to all class members who were eligible for the savings bond because each is receiving the value for which they qualified. It is reasonable and adequate because they kept their electrical usage below the allowance and did not receive the bond they were promised. 25. The former tenants for whom Class Counsel has no valid address will have their equivalent amounts held in trust by Class Counsel for six months from when the checks are first sent to known addresses. Notice of Settlement 26. Class Counsel provided the best practicable notice to all class members and mailed individual notice to class members whose addresses could be determined. Class Counsel is responsible for distributing the settlement proceeds. Class Counsel has provided a declaration that the actual costs of doing this exceeded $2, Class Counsel will receive $2, out of the total settlement amount as administration costs. 27. Class Counsel mailed the approved Notice of Class Action Settlement (Preliminary Approval Order, Attachment 4, Dkt 83) to each of the Class Members who could be located. The Notice of Class Action Settlement described the following: the nature of this action; the definition of the class 6

8 Case 3:12-cv GEC Document 88-4 Filed 01/07/14 Page 8 of 10 Pageid#: 1152 certified; the class claims and issues raised, the proposed amounts to be distributed for reimbursements; percentage of excess utility fees that class members will be reimbursed; that class members have the right to hire an attorney; that the court will exclude any member who requests exclusion; the time and manner for requesting exclusion; and the binding effect of a class judgment on class members. This Notice also advised Class Members that they may contact Class Counsel if they would like further information. 28. Initially addresses were found for all but eight Class Members. Notices were initially sent to 383 of the 436 class members, of which 45 notices were returned. Second and third mailings totaling 83 notices to additional tenants as well as some whose notices were initially returned yielded another 21 notices returned because of invalid addresses. Ultimately of the 436 class members, 41 did not receive a notice because it was returned. Thus Class Counsel does not have valid addresses for 41 out of 436 total class members. Consequently, checks will be issued to approximately 94% of the Class Members. Objection, intervention, or opt-out 29. No Class Member or Class Counsel disagreed with the determination as to the class members eligibility for reimbursement or the amount of the reimbursement. 30. No Class Member opted out. 31. One objection was received which set forth a unique set of circumstances and asserted that the payment amount was inadequate. This objection raised no issues as to whether the terms of the Settlement Agreement were fair, adequate, and reasonable for the class. 32. No Class Member has sought to intervene. 7

9 Case 3:12-cv GEC Document 88-4 Filed 01/07/14 Page 9 of 10 Pageid#: If an appeal is filed which does not set aside this settlement, any payment or form of other consideration provided to any intervenor or objector must first be presented to the Court for approval by motion. The motion that is made on behalf of any objector or intervenor must separately identify the consideration to be provided to the objector or intervenor, any attorney's fees that are to be paid, and the benefit that the objector or intervenor conferred upon the class. Distribution of money 34. Each named Plaintiff and Class Member s proportionate total share of the Settlement Fund to be distributed from the Settlement Fund will be calculated as follows: (a) Each named Plaintiff and Class Member whose identifying number appears on Attachment 2 receives their percentage recovery for electricity surcharges between June 7, 2007 and May 31, 2013 as listed in Attachment 2. (b) Each named Plaintiff or Class Member whose identifying number appears on Attachment 3 receives a payment of $50.00 for each year identified in which that named Plaintiff or Class Member did not exceed their annual electrical allowance. (c) In consideration for their commitment to the pursuit of the claims in this action on behalf of themselves and the Class, the individual named Plaintiffs in this action will receive $6, from the Settlement Fund. This represents an incentive award of $1, to each named Plaintiff for participation as a class representative to cover the expenses incurred for attending meetings and hearings as well as personal time spent advancing 8

10 Case 3:12-cv GEC Document 88-4 Filed 01/07/14 Page 10 of 10 Pageid#: 1154 the litigation and the personal risk they took in speaking out for their rights. This amount is within the normal range for incentive awards of class actions of this size. Disposition of Unclaimed Funds (Cy Pres) 35. Any unclaimed funds in the escrow account as of six months after the checks have first been disbursed shall be distributed to the Albemarle Housing Improvement Project (AHIP), to be held in trust for the use by then-current tenants of CRHA facilities for monetary assistance toward the purchase of energy-efficient cooling equipment or energy-efficiency improvements. Attorneys fees and costs 36. This settlement includes $50, in attorneys fees, payable to Legal Aid Justice Center and represents only a portion of the total hours spent by Plaintiffs attorneys on this case multiplied by the lodestar rates of those attorneys representing reasonable rates for attorneys of comparable experience in the same market area. 37. Class Counsel also receives $2, out of the total settlement amount to cover the costs of settlement administration. Continuing Jurisdiction 38. The Court shall have continuing jurisdiction, during the term of this Agreement, to enforce this Settlement Agreement's terms, and to enforce the Final Judgment. Approved and entered this day of, United States District Judge 9
